{Preparing For Jaxon's Birthday} Dinosaur Crayons

I made dinosaur crayons to put in party favors for the kids. Here's where I found out how to make them.I looked through all my old crayons for all the different color blues since Jaxon's party is a blue ombré/dinosaur party.

Old Crayons

Silicon Mold

Candle Mold Release

1. Start off by taking all the wrappers off the crayons.

I found that using a razor works the best rather then trying to rip all the wrapping off yourself.

2. Once your done, cut the crayons. The smaller you cut them, the faster they melt.

I would even cut them smaller then in my picture.

Try to cut them the same size.

3. Preheat oven to 350-400 degrees.

4. Spray mold with candle mold release each time.

5. Place in the mold.

6. Put the mold on a flat cookie sheet in the over for 5-7 minutes.

Keep an eye on it because it could melt faster then that time, depending on the size of the crayons.
